Matcha Uji

Product code: CSTV-33

Add to my notebook

A delicious matcha with an excellent quality / price ratio brought to us by the Osafumi brothers, second generation producers. This matcha comes from the mythical region of Uji, near Kyoto (the former capital of Japan), and more precisely from Ujitawara, hometown of Nagatani Soen, inventor of the sencha tea style. Its powerful and tasty emulsion offers a velvety texture and a slightly bitter-sweet flavor, with notes of oily grass and snow peas. A touch of gentle iodine tickles the palate, overshadowing everything.

To prepare a good matcha, just follow a few simple, but precise, steps.

Ideally, remove the matcha from the fridge and leave at room temperature for 30 minutes before use (Ideal but not essential).

Sift the measure of matcha you need through a sieve for a creamier mousse and to prevent lumps.

Whisk with energy with a chasen (bamboo whisk). Start beneath the surface. As a mousse starts to form, gradually raise your whisking towards the central surface. With practice you will produce more foam each time.
